Your good friend has been dealing with a difficult family situation. Her mother has dementia and is in a care facility. You know it's tough for her, but when you try to talk about yourself, she ends the conversation! Do you suppose there are ways to let her know how narcissistic she's been acting without losing her as a friend?
